This is the second of at least clashes Chelsea Women are having with Manchester United this season. The first was a Women’s Super League where we shared the spoils at Leigh Sports Village.
Today there can’t be a sharing of anything. Only one of us get through to the Women’s FA Cup quarter-final. And the Blues will do what they must to move forward in this competition.
